Much as I enjoyed Leia holding her own with Vader, in these mind-games of theirs, it felt a little bit implausible... until the very end, that is, where it's suggested that Vader played her for a dupe all along. Still, though, could've been made better. But in doing so, it might also have been less entertaining. So.

Also, a telekinetic without being a Force-user? Strange.

"I did not like it." - 1 out of 5 star rating.

Another addition to the worst-in-class family. Welcome!

Vader and Leia go back and forth like Wile E Coyote and the Road Runner, in this ridiculously cringe back and forth, 1980's Saturday morning cartoon style, ludicrous conflict that is just beyond absurd.

I think this is actually the #1 very worst depiction of Lord Vader ever created.

Man... I hope these get better.. at issue #48 out of 100+, we've got a long way to go still.
